Ranged Pumps 9minecraft Mod adds a single pump block that extracts water or lava from any pool within its range – no complicated setup, no scaffolding down to fluid level, and no need to place the pump right at the edge of the source.

Ranged Pumps 9minecraft Mod pumps water and lava at range without touching the fluid directly

Place the pump anywhere above a body of water or lava, connect a pipe or tank to its output, and it will draw fluid from the pool below into your storage system. It works equally well on finite pools – draining them completely – or on infinite natural sources like lakes and lava lakes that regenerate on their own. The pump fits into any fluid transport system from popular mods, making it a clean starting block for automated fluid collection.

Features:

  • Pumps water, lava, and modded fluids from a configurable area below the pump.
  • No need to place the pump at fluid level – it reaches down into the pool from above.
  • Drains finite pools completely or draws indefinitely from infinite sources.
  • Connects to pipes and fluid tanks from popular mod loaders.
  • Configurable pump range so you control how wide an area it covers.
  • One block does all the work – no multiblock structure required.

How to Use:

  • Craft a Ranged Pump and place it above the fluid source you want to collect from.
  • Connect a pipe or fluid tank to the pump output face.
  • Provide a redstone signal or set it to always-on mode.
  • The pump will begin drawing fluid from the pool below into your connected storage.

Configuration:

A config file is generated at .minecraft/config/rangedpumps-common.toml. The main settings are:

  • pump_range (default 64) – vertical distance in blocks the pump scans downward for fluid.
  • pump_speed (default 20) – ticks between each pump operation (lower is faster).
  • consume_source (default true) – whether finite fluid blocks are removed when pumped.
  • use_energy (default false) – set true to require energy (FE) to operate.
  • energy_per_op (default 100) – energy used per pump operation when use_energy is on.

Open the file in a text editor to see every available field, then restart the game to apply your changes.
